Or, upgrade to Preferred Club for private beach and pool access amongst other luxurious benefits. There are opportunities galore for relaxing but if you’re feeling active, you’re in luck, there’s also plenty to keep you busy including tennis, basketball and volleyball. For all pursuits aquatic, head down to the beach, taking advantage of your FREE scuba diving lesson in the swimming pool and the complimentary non motorised watersports of course! A state-of-the-art fitness centre may also tempt you or treat yourself to an hour or two at the lavish spa with its oceanfront massage cabanas. Nights are lively too with an open-air theatre hosting some spectacular live music performances. Alternatively, snuggle up and enjoy a movie together on the beach, head to Desires Music Lounge for dancing or take the free shuttle bus to the hip strip and party the night away! There are 7 gourmet restaurants in all to choose from, each one specialising in dishes from around the world. For Mexican à la carte there’s El Patio or reserve a table at the Tepenyaki table in Himitsu for exciting Pan-Asian cuisine. There’s also Oceana for delicious fresh seafood, Bordeaux for French à la carte and Portofino for Italian favourites, all of which offer outside dining. 6 bars complement the range of restaurants, including a Cigar and Piano Bar with an easy-going, relaxed atmosphere and the Beach Bar serving exotic cocktails against a background of crashing waves.
